Biggi, can you translate the following from your text from one of your articles?

Es reichte, mit der Zündhütchenzange das abgeschossene Zündhütchen zu entfernen und ein neues Zündhütchen zu setzen, die fertig abgewogene Pulverladung einzufüllen und das Geschoss entweder von Hand oder mit einem einfachen Geschosssetzer in den Hülsenmund zu schieben


I try to translate that section for you:

"It was simply enough to remove the used primer with the primer-caliper and place a new primer. Afterwards to fill-in the necessary amount of powder and insert the bullet to the case-mouth manually by hand or with a common bullet-seater."

The stop-ring on the 8.15 x 46R bullet makes "no tools" reloading easy. By the way, I have been looking for an original Wehrmannsbusche in the Uk for years. One came up for sale in an auction last year and fetched around £3500. Your father should have left it alone!

Thank you, Biggi,
That's much clearer than the way Google did it.

In the other quote, I did get that "pressure point" meant trigger but, it took a while Smiley

I've had my eye on a "kind-of-sort-of " one of them at a little shop down in S IN.  Unfortunately it appears to be more of a light stalking rifle in a split-bridge single-shot bolt-gun format with basic open sights, (front sight missing) and a real basic mil-type trigger. etc.  Clearly not a target rifle.  Not absolutely positive the round is 8.15x46
Sadly the shop owner has delusions when it comes to price.  He's one of those everything he buys is tin and whatever he sells is gold.

Just to clarify on my first post - it is a sporterized Mauser. It's definitely a Haenel-Lorenz. I will take a picture as soon as I can get the crappy digital camera to work right. I don't know how to post pics, however. 
Do I have to have a separate URL like photobucket or can I post directly from this site?
I don't know if I can bump up .312 bullets to .315 with the bullet former set included in the RCBS dies. Like I said earlier it shoots fine for hunting with the .312 bullets but I would like to have the right size. Deer season is over in Idaho next week so I will have more time to experiment.
I was able to translate the German site using the google translate bar.
Thanks again for all the help.

George

George, you dont need a external URL from photobucket to post pics. 

You can manage it here on the forum, but the max. size is 500kb for one pic. So you should crop the most important part of the pic and resize it with less resolution.

You may post one or more pics in one post.

Do it, we want to see pics!!!   Wink  Grin
